Her name was Henrietta Lacks, but scientists know her as HeLa. She was a poor black tobacco farmer whose cells—taken without her knowledge in 1951—became one of the most important tools in medicine, vital for developing the polio vaccine, cloning, gene mapping, in vitro fertilization and more. Henrietta's cells have been bought and sold by the billions, yet she remains virtually unknown, and her family can't afford health insurance. The book takes readers on an extraordinary journey, from the “colored” ward of Johns Hopkins Hospital in the 1950s to stark white laboratories with freezers filled with HeLa cells, from Henrietta's small, dying hometown of Clover, Virginia, to East Baltimore today, where her children and grandchildren live and struggle with the legacy of her cells.

Miss Marian Anderson and Friends Project
Performed by the cast of the Oscar Micheaux Family Theater Program
Miss Marian Anderson will be portrayed by Mrs. Monica Anderson-Spencer
Miss Marian Anderson and Friends Project, an original play written by Haywood Fennell, Founder and Executive Director of the Oscar Micheaux Family Theater Program of Boston, portrays the life and times of Miss Marian Anderson as she seeks to overcome racial inequalities, including the denial of Miss Anderson to perform at Constitution Hall in Washington, D.C. by the Daughters of the American Revolution. This event set in motion the opportunity for her to become one of the “most celebrated vocalists of her times,” and well as to provide an opportunity for others to overcome racial injustices.

Bozella's early life in Brooklyn was one of hardship. As a nine-year-old boy, he witnessed his father beat his mother to death. Foster care and life on the streets defined his youth. In 1983, Bozella, by then a boxer, was convicted of a murder he did not commit and was sentenced to 20 years to life in Sing Sing prison. While in prison, Bozella earned his GED, a bachelor's degree and a master's degree. After serving 26 years, he was finally exonerated and released from prison. Less than two years later, Bozella was honored by athletes from around the world with the Arthur Ashe Courage Award. Prior recipients of the award include Nelson Mandela, Muhammad Ali and Billie Jean King.

Her name was Henrietta Lacks, but scientists know her as HeLa. She was a poor black tobacco farmer whose cells—taken without her knowledge in 1951—became one of the most important tools in medicine, vital for developing the polio vaccine, cloning, gene mapping, in vitro fertilization and more. Henrietta's cells have been bought and sold by the billions, yet she remains virtually unknown, and her family can't afford health insurance. The book takes readers on an extraordinary journey, from the “colored” ward of Johns Hopkins Hospital in the 1950s to stark white laboratories with freezers filled with HeLa cells, from Henrietta's small, dying hometown of Clover, Virginia, to East Baltimore today, where her children and grandchildren live and struggle with the legacy of her cells.
